Whither Grand Junction, BLM?

As the Grand Junction Sentinel’s Dennis Webb reports, Rep. Deb Haaland of New Mexico has been confirmed by the U.S. Senate to be the next Secretary of the Interior, elevating a 35th generation Pueblo Native American to the highest authority over the nation’s land use policies short of the President himself. It’s an historic moment. […]

Redistricting Commissioners and the Unaffiliated Voter Myth

  Somewhere near Leadville, Colorado, on the way to Mount Elbert — Colorado’s highest mountain peak — there is an unmarked road that meanders beneath a towering forest of Aspen trees. If you follow this path and take a left at the beaver dam, you might be lucky enough to come across the spartan home […]

There is Still No “War on Rural Colorado”

Certain Republican politicians in our state LOVE to talk about the so-called “war on rural Colorado.” This is a fun game in which you accuse politicians from more populated parts of the state — who normally happen to be Democrats — of intentionally trying to screw over more remote parts of the state because they […]

500,000 Dead Americans, Zero Apologies From Colorado GOP

Having officially passed the tragic milestone of half a million Americans dead, we can say with certainty today that the COVID-19 pandemic was not a “psyop.” Weld County Sheriff Steve Reams got it wrong: “I’m going to rant just a bit,” wrote Reams on Facebook. “I understand that nobody wants to catch Coronavirus but statistically, […]

Big COVID Relief Bill is Political No-Brainer

Impeachment 2.0 has taken up all of the political oxygen this week, moving President Biden’s COVID relief bill to the sideline temporarily. But a bevy of new information shows that Republican opposition to the $1.9 trillion relief bill is wildly out of touch with the rest of America. As Paul Waldman explains for The Washington […]

Rep. Ron Hanks, Insurrectionist Man Of Mystery

With the Colorado General Assembly getting back to work next week after a monthlong COVID-imposed hiatus, one of the more curious stories we’re following is that of freshman Republican Rep.

It’s Still Donald Trump’s Party

And as The Hill reports, the former President could end the GOP as we know it with one weird trick: A majority of Republican voters said if former President Trump were to start a new political party they would likely join, a new Hill-HarrisX poll finds. Sixty-four percent of registered Republican voters in the Jan. […]

We Already Knew Ken Buck Wasn’t Running For Senate

Yesterday evening, outgoing chairman of the thoroughly demoralized Colorado Republican Party and Rep. Ken Buck of Weld County made it official: he will not be a candidate for the U.S. Senate in 2022. I am humbled by the interest and support I have received to pursue a potential Senate bid, however I will not be […]

Has “Worthless” Doug Lamborn’s Star Finally Fallen?

Two Republican members of Congress from Colorado stand accused of helping incite violence at the U.S. Capitol on January 6th by joining the dead-ender objections to elector slates from Arizona and Pennsylvania. One of them, Rep. Lauren Boebert, has become the focus of nationwide scrutiny for her actions before and during the attack on the […]

Biden’s Big Moves On Oil And Gas Signal Bigger Future Shift

As the Colorado Sun’s Jason Blevins reports, the first few days of Joe Biden’s presidency have included bold steps on the locally contentious issue of oil and gas drilling, the biggest of which (so far) is a 60-day moratorium on new drilling permits for federal lands: Conservationists are cheering the Biden administration’s 60-day pause on […]

The Old Ken Buck Is Back

Rep. Ken Buck, outgoing chairman of the Colorado Republican Party, angered a broad swath of party faithful by acknowledging Joe Biden’s victory over Donald Trump after the Electoral College did its thing on December 14, and going to significant lengths to debunk the baseless allegations about Colorado’s election system that also underpinned Trump’s bogus claims […]
